A method for estimating posture of robotic walking aid comprises: providing a motor controller, a motor encoder and a motor on right and left hip joints, and right and left knee joints of a robotic walking aid, providing an inertial sensor on upper body of the robotic walking aid, wherein the motor controller, the motor encoder, the motor and the inertial sensor are coupled to a control unit; installing the robotic walking aid on a user; inputting the lengths of the upper body, two thighs, two shanks, two feet of the robotic walking aid to the control unit, wherein the upper body, two thighs, two shanks, two feet form a plurality of points; obtaining an angle of the upper body corresponding to a reference frame with the inertial sensor; obtaining angles of those joints with those motor encoders; and calculating 3 dimensional coordinates of each point with a motion model.

A robot includes a robot arm and an inertial sensor provided in the robot arm. The robot arm is controlled using a weighting value for weighting output from the inertial sensor. In at least apart of a range in which the robot arm is movable, the weighting value is a first value when acceleration of the robot arm is first acceleration, and changes from the first value to a second value higher than the first value when the acceleration of the robot arm changes from the first acceleration to second acceleration lower than the first acceleration.

Embodiments are related to providing systematic delayering of chips, such as finFET chips, along with performing field failure and material investigation. Techniques include receiving information from a gyroscope unit, a vacuum stage being connected to a sample, the vacuum stage being configured to maintain a position of the sample to a polishing table. Techniques include adjusting the position of the sample based, at least in part, on the information received from the gyroscope unit.
